Drop the Mop: There are 25+ Revenue Streams in the City Wide Facility Solutions Franchise
We appreciate it when we can work with business owners who have been building their franchise business with their family members. Today's podcast was started by Savannah Oddo's grandfather 60 (yes, sixty) years ago, and it still hasn't hit a ceiling on growth. Chantel sits down with Savannah, VP of Franchise Development at City Wide Facility Solutions, to unpack a B2B franchise model that is scalable and strong. City Wide isn't your typical cleaning crew business. Instead, it's a franchise based on one point of contact managing 20+ facility services for commercial properties. If you were hoping to pick up a mop or a rag, this franchise is not for you. Savannah explains how City Wide Facility Solutions, once a family janitorial company, transformed into a management business with 25+ revenue streams and exclusive territories so that franchisees collaborate instead of compete. So, put the mop down and listen up. ------------------ Considering Investing In A Franchise? 🔍 Request a Territory Check | Check territory availability here: http://www.franchiseempire.com/checkterritory?utm_source=feaug112026 🔄 Franchise Resales | Find existing businesses for sale: https://www.franchiseempire.com/resales?utm_source=feaug112026 ------------------ Ready to Build Your Empire? 🚨 Join The #1 Community for Owning a Money-Making Franchise: https://www.skool.com/franchiseempirebuilders/about 🚀 Franchise Buyers Academy - Speed up your journey with our step-by-step mini-course: https://www.franchiseempire.com/FBA?utm_source=feaug112026 💰 Get Business Grants From the Government: https://www.franchiseempire.com/bizgrants?utm_source=feaug112026 ------------------ Free Resources to Get You Started!

Inside the CertaPro Painters Franchise
Grab our breakdown of the 5 Low-Cost Businesses That Make $1 Million: https://www.franchiseempire.com/lowcost?utm_source=fejuly192026What does it take to go from entry-level sales rep to franchise owner in the same business you spent years building from the inside out? In this episode of the Zero to Profitable Franchise Podcast, host Chantel Soumis sits down with Erik Harris, owner and general manager of CertaPro Painters of Needham, Massachusetts. Erik started at Sherwin Williams out of college, spent over seven years as a sales rep at CertaPro, and in late 2020 bought the business from the previous owner in the middle of a global pandemic. He breaks down why he chose to stay with the franchise instead of going independent, how he generated 108 new Google reviews in a single year, why business networking became his highest ROI marketing channel, and what he has had to unlearn as a perfectionist to think like a business owner. If you want to understand what franchise ownership actually looks like day to day, Erik's story gives you a clear picture of what that path actually looks like.------------------Considering Investing In A Franchise?🔍 Request a Territory Check | Check territory availability here: http://www.franchiseempire.com/checkterritory?utm_source=fejuly192026🔄 Franchise Resales | Find existing businesses for sale: https://www.franchiseempire.com/resales?utm_source=fejuly192026------------------Ready to Build Your Empire?🚨 Join The #1 Community for Owning a Money-Making Franchise: https://www.skool.com/franchiseempirebuilders/about🚀 Franchise Buyers Academy - Speed up your journey with our step-by-step mini-course: https://www.franchiseempire.com/FBA?utm_source=fejuly192026💰 Get Business Grants From the Government: https://www.franchiseempire.com/bizgrants?utm_source=fejuly192026------------------Free Resources to Get You Started!Download our list of 42 High Performing (and profitable) Franchises: https://www.franchiseempire.com/42hpf?utm_source=fejuly192026Grab & understand 14 Franchise Buying Mistakes that could destroy your investment: https://www.franchiseempire.com/14fbm?utm_source=fejuly192026Grab our breakdown of the 5 Low-Cost Businesses That Make $1 Million: https://www.franchiseempire.com/lowcost?utm_source=fejuly192026Watch our FREE Franchising Masterclass to find vet and launch for : https://www.franchiseempire.com/masterclass?utm_source=fejuly192026Download our FREE StarterKit: The Zero to Profitable Franchise in Less Than 12 Months Guide: https://www.franchiseempire.com/o-ztpf-guide?utm_source=fejuly192026------------------Get High Performing Franchises In Your Inbox Every Weekhttps://www.franchiseempire.com/newsletter?utm_source=fejuly192026------------------My Most Popular Business Videos:https://youtu.be/EYBKoz68FUghttps://youtu.be/nJtAHaDYenA https://youtu.be/gpWQRflrtDY https://youtu.be/RPe2Sf6eL60 https://youtu.be/NpnFyXi4sAg https://youtu.be/U90fmdWhzCg https://youtu.be/fCLy6cc82Hw https://youtu.be/xQZkfQNkhqsLegal stuff we have to say!The information presented on this website is based on the most recent Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) available for each franchise opportunity.

We cover why the SBA considers franchising the lowest risk path for first time business owners, what it actually means to buy into a proven system and playbook, how franchisees benefit from national marketing funds and collective buying power, why securing an SBA loan is often easier for franchise buyers than independent business owners, and what the long term commitment of a franchise agreement really looks like on the other side.
